@sik94 it happened to Styx male in Sabi Sands not long ago, I saw the pic the next day him laying there in pool of blood similar to this s26. Also Mandevu 1/3 Topi males also got jumped by his pride females not long back and lost his testicle probably would have died also if vets didn't treat him. His brothers were around too and did nothing. Reply

Do they sire any male cubs/ subs/ adult? 
These boys are 12 yrs old and sons of original old mazithi males. Reply

Great sighting today by Jock of the Last Mpondo male seen with 3/4 Jock sons on a buffalo kill on S23, apparently all being very comfortable with each other, hopefully this will stick. Reply

Oh wow, that is a big deal then. He needs the partners, and they could likely use the guidance. Sounds almost like it has potential to become a Notch sort of situation. Am I reading into that correctly? I am not aware of any males, outside of the Notches to join up and make a coalition with their sons. Reply

Nhena+NK and Lubyebye Sr. and his son(before the son disappeared) are a couple other examples. Reply

Yes, great point, I forgot entirely about the Lubyebyes. Just shows the rarity of these events, for sure. Reply

In every death there is another life, a hungry cub feeding on the carcass of his dead father at Kruger National Park.  Reply
